There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Moorhead to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
